He and the radical Ange are definitely opposites, but at this moment, these two old guys who always quarreled at the school board meetings and sometimes spit at each other across the table were actually talking to each other so harmoniously.
-----------------
"General Wang is a substitute. The person controlling the ghosts should be Friedrich von Long." Lu Mingfei sent a text message to Angers using the encrypted channel provided by EVA. Then he hung up the phone and looked out the window expressionlessly.
The heavy armed helicopter, like a super stallion, was roaring its engine, its rotors wantonly cutting through the sky, and passing through the entire city with a sound wave like a tsunami.
With only a few minutes left to the Peninsula Tokyo Hotel, Lu Mingfei and Qi Lan's retreat was not hindered in any way.
The war between the Snake Knights and the Oni at the Yamanashi Institute of Environmental Science camp had not ended until they left.
This trip was by no means a complete failure. On the contrary, Lu Mingfei successfully completed the task assigned to him by the academy and found out that the Chiguichuan Sect was indeed hiding a huge number of dragon subspecies.
At the same time, he learned who was hiding behind General Wang.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please hold the handrails and take your luggage. We are about to land on the tarmac of the Peninsula Hotel in Tokyo!" Finkel's cheerful voice rang out from the loudspeaker in the cockpit, and Lu Mingfei's thoughts were pulled back.
Only then did he realize that Nuonuo was leaning against him, with his head on his shoulder, his dark red pupils reflecting the hazy light in the sky.
Lu Mingfei was slightly moved by Nuonuo's beauty under the faint light of the sky. On her earlobes hung silver four-leaf clover earrings that shimmered with light, like water waves when they swayed.
Nuonuo finally realized that Lu Mingfei was looking at her. She gave the man beside her a reproachful look, twisted her body like a coquettish cat, and nudged herself into Lu Mingfei's arms.
Lu Mingfei blinked and reached out to hold his senior sister's hand.
Nuonuo also blinked, and her long, curved eyelashes trembled and drooped.
Her hands were slender and soft, with a heart-warming warmth.
"My senior brother's mission has also been completed. It is said that Caesar dropped a nuclear bomb and an alchemical sulfur bomb into the Japanese Trench, blowing the dragon clan's ruins into fragments on the seabed." Lu Mingfei said.
Christina suddenly raised her head, her straight back slightly leaned forward, and there seemed to be a light flashing in her deep green eyes.
"They didn't encounter any accidents?"
"No, but judging by their personalities... they should have joined the sniper team on the sea surface and are fighting the corpse guards rising from the bottom of the sea." Lu Mingfei touched his brow, "I heard that Caesar was very happy. He said they destroyed the kingdom of God."
Everyone else in the cabin was quite interested. Qilan and the young lady who was supposed to be the pilot eavesdropped on their conversation with their ears perked up. Ling stared at Lu Mingfei with his beautiful platinum eyes, which made him feel a little uneasy.
Nuonuo had her face buried in Lu Mingfei's neck. Her breath was fragrant and warm, making people feel as if they were falling into the clouds.
Ling suddenly stood up and Lu Mingfei was startled.
Her Royal Highness the Princess snorted coldly and sat down on the other side of Lu Mingfei.
Christina and Qilan looked at each other.
"I saw someone setting off fireworks over there. It would be better to sit here." Ling explained coldly. However, after she said that, Nuo Nuo felt a little embarrassed to play tricks with Lu Mingfei. She cleared her throat, pulled her hand back and placed it on her knees, and looked towards the porthole that Ling was looking at.
Sharp whistles sounded from all directions of the helicopter. It turned out that Ling was not making an excuse. She really saw someone setting off fireworks.
Then huge fireworks exploded on the side of the helicopter, illuminating the gray-white buildings in the snow and the long road with traffic like a river. It also illuminated the eyes of Nono and Ling who were looking up at the window.
Christina also turned around and uttered a soft exclamation of admiration.
The long snowstorm was dyed into fairy-tale colors by the fireworks, and the bells of a church hidden somewhere rang, and the sound was so magnificent that even they could hear it.
"It's so bright." Nuonuo whispered. She gently bit her lower lip, which had a rose petal texture, and her eyelashes left a deep shadow on her eyelids.
Lu Mingfei nodded.
The brilliant colors easily left colorful marks on his face even through the thick snow curtain like mountains and seas, and he suddenly wanted to laugh.
Christmas is coming soon, right?
He remembered that Eri had said that her birthday was Christmas. On that day, Gen Chisei would prepare a Christmas tree decorated with colorful lights and reindeers dressed up as real deer shipped from Nara for her. Gen Chisei, dressed as Santa Claus, would stand under the Christmas tree with a gift box in one hand and sing Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas to Eri respectively.
On that day, Eri will be invited to the church opened by her family, where a choir will bless her with the sound of an organ under the stained glass windows.
"Hey, Lu Mingfei." Ling Leng looked seriously at the grand fireworks blooming one after another outside the window with his little face, and called Lu Mingfei's name softly.
Lu Mingfei tilted his head to look at the girl sitting next to him who was almost completely covered by the shadow, and Nuo Nuo also looked over curiously.
Ling's high-heeled boots tapped on the ground, and her little face was tense, as if she wanted to tell Lu Mingfei a secret that only she knew in the world, or to tell Lu Mingfei to run away quickly because a group of people would come to kill him soon.
But in the end, Ling neither revealed any secrets nor asked Lu Mingfei to escape. She wrapped herself tightly in the camel-colored cashmere coat, and wrinkled her little nose.
"Can you take me with you when you go to Hokkaido?"
she says.
Lu Mingfei was stunned, and suddenly he wanted to laugh. Nuo Nuo quietly pinched the guy's arm, so President Lu quickly held his breath and focused his eyes.
After waiting for a few seconds without any response, Ling's cheeks turned red, not sure whether it was anger or shame.
Her body was tense, as if she was about to rush out in the next second and knock Lu Mingfei up into the sky with a rising dragon punch.
But suddenly the girl's head fell heavily.
She raised her head and saw Lu Mingfei reaching out to gently rub her head.
"Okay." Lu Mingfei said casually. He was still looking out the window, his hands moving as if he was stroking a puppy.
Chapter 368 Set off to Hokkaido!
Operation Jiyuan was successfully completed, but Caesar and Chu Zihang did not return to the Peninsula Hotel Tokyo to rest that night.
They stayed at sea and worked with the executive department to handle the finishing work there.
Given the huge number of corpses crawling out from the underground of Takamagahara, numbering in the tens of thousands, as well as the corpses of the super dragon-blood subspecies floating on the sea, which, judging from the pictures, are comparable to Godzilla, a protracted and labor-intensive finishing operation is imperative.
Otherwise, the Chief Cabinet Secretary of the Japanese government would have to scratch his head in order to deal with many questions from reporters from all over the world, such as "alien invasion", "alien arrival" and "biological mutation caused by nuclear radiation".
However, even though there were many minor incidents in the middle and the cost of the follow-up work was astronomical, the college also gained a lot from this operation.
Not to mention the living corpses that had never been captured in the past few hundred years and the corpses of dragon subspecies with high dragonization levels, just the videos and images that Caesar and Chu Zihang brought back from Takama-ga-hara were enough to drive all the alchemists in the world crazy.
In the world of dragons, dragon language is not depicted according to words or simple hieroglyphic writing rules, but according to sentence patterns.
So far, there are only seventy-six sentences of dragon script mastered by Kassel Academy.
A language is divided into two parts: characters and grammar. These two parts combined can form infinite sentences. However, Dragon script is a dead script. So far, only characters are left, but no grammar. The last person in history who understood the grammar of Dragon script was Nicolas Flamel, who in terms of seniority is the great-great-great-great-grandfather of the old guy who likes to hide in the bell tower, drink beer and watch porn.
The old Flamel used to live in Paris. He was a scribe and alchemist. He was the only person in history who had refined the Philosopher's Stone. He was also the first person in the entire Western history who was recorded as possessing the Word of Judgment.
Even Lao Ni could only summarize such 76 short sentences of dragon characters in his entire life, while the dragon characters shown in the video files that Chu Zihang and Caesar brought back from the bottom of the sea were simply innumerable.
The towering tower is speculated to be a book recording the history of the White King in Takamagahara. Every character on it is pure dragon language. Once fully analyzed, the hybrids' understanding of dragons will be pushed to an incredible level.
This was a great achievement. Not only did they destroy the embryo that was undergoing abnormal development and might eventually develop into some kind of monster, they also destroyed Takama-ga-hara buried in the deep sea and brought the knowledge of the Age of Gods back to the real world.
As Chu Zihang and Caesar Gattuso who completed this task, their names will surely shine throughout the history of dragon slaying.
In exchange, Caesar was able to propose to the Kassel Academy that Christina be included in the next batch of candidates to implement the Nibelungen Plan.
But later, Lu Mingfei saw the sneaky Jiude Mai in Ling's room.
Ling told him that Jude Mai was arranged by Lu Mingze to dive with the Trieste. The purpose seemed to be to obtain some samples from the abnormally developed and dead embryo that sank into the Japan Trench with the Lenin.
Lu Mingfei was not so interested in the embryo samples. He thought that it was probably the whim of some little devil, plotting some conspiracy to subvert the world.
The only thing he was concerned about was Jiude Mai's safety.
According to Zero, the girl left the Deliaste without wearing any protective gear at a depth of 8,600 meters under the sea, and used a diving knife to cut open the abnormal development of the embryo at the edge of the Nibelung, where the water pressure was so heavy that it could crush steel and the temperature was so low that it could cause hypothermia. She then got into the Lenin, where time seemed to have stopped and everything was at the moment of its sinking, and obtained the sample from it.
Just from the description of an outsider, one can tell how dangerous the situation was at the time. It is hard to imagine what a terrible test Jiude Mai faced...
Lu Mingfei's shoulders sank, and he felt a faint and cold fragrance blowing towards him.
He tilted his head slightly to look over. Eri had yawned continuously just a few minutes after getting on the plane and had fallen asleep on his shoulder. Nono, who was sitting next to Zero, was wearing a huge black eye mask and white headphones, curled up in the soft seat and snoring softly.
Last night, after Lu Mingfei returned to the Peninsula Hotel in Tokyo from the Tama River, Nuonuo insisted on watching anime with him, such as Detective Conan.
Lu Mingfei was actually not that interested, but seeing Eri's face full of anticipation, he agreed. Later, Nono and her junior sister took sake and oden from the vending machine downstairs, and they played cards and blackjack together. The loser had a note stuck on his face. They played until four in the morning, and Lu Mingfei even had his shirt stripped off and was covered with notes.
However, the junior sister in the front seat and Constantine, who stuffed himself into a dark brown down jacket, a pointed furry hat and a thick scarf, looked very energetic.
Lu Mingfei reached out his hand through the gap between the seats and quietly scratched his junior sister's soft and slender waist. Xia Mi turned around from the aisle and made a face at Lu Mingfei, wrinkled her delicate nose, and reached out to pinch this guy's thigh.
Lu Mingfei retracted his legs, and Xia Mi snorted and glared at the man. He sighed and obediently put the softest part of his thigh between the girl's slightly bent index and middle fingers.
"Senior brother, you are not honest. This is your punishment." Xia Mi was very proud after succeeding. She bared her teeth and her eyes sparkled slightly. She tilted her head to look at Lu Mingfei.
"Junior sister, have you ever been to Hokkaido before?"
"No, I was very poor before, didn't you know that? You even taught me how to cook." Xia Mi looked at Lu Mingfei carefully with eyes wide open. "Lu Mingfei, you haven't been there before, have you?"
"Me neither, but I know Chu Zihang has been there." Lu Mingfei curled his lips. He had actually invited other people to go to Hokkaido together, but Chu Zihang refused them on the grounds that Susie wanted to go to Atami to see the cherry blossoms.
There are indeed cherry blossoms in Atami during this season, as the city is very rich in hot spring resources, and the heat from underground continues to rise to the ground even in winter, so some cherry blossoms will abnormally bloom at this time.
As for Caesar, he has already gone to the Meiji Imperial Palace with Miss Christina Kabaeva.
Master Gattuso felt that he had really chosen this girl, so he was now taking her around Tokyo to visit the places where he planned to hold the wedding.
By the way, the Mafia tycoons were indeed tough and powerful. Caesar had no intention of just having a wedding, an event that usually only happens once in a person's life and requires the blessing of the whole world.
He told Lu Mingfei about his idea. He planned to hold more than twenty weddings in at least Russia, China, the United States, Japan, Brazil, Italy, the United Kingdom... and other countries, ranging from Orthodox weddings to Christian weddings to Chinese weddings to Shinto weddings. This guy really wanted to let the whole world see the little prince of the Gattuso family marry his favorite girl.
Lu Mingfei said, "Brother, you can just spend money to ask NASA to build a starship for you that is big enough to accommodate a small church, and hold your wedding on the moon. You can also broadcast the whole process live to the world and do some advertising at the same time. You might even be able to make back the money you paid to NASA."
Caesar patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder and said, "You don't know this, right? Apollo 11 never took anyone to the moon. It was the Americans who were fooling the Russians at the time. Even if you give NASA billion now, they don't have the ability to send you to the moon."
Thinking about it this way, Lu Mingfei felt that there were actually quite a lot of people in this world who were evil-minded, including Americans, Chinese, Russians, and Italians. They all seemed friendly on the surface, but were actually evil inside.
A sweet female voice came from the radio, repeating the routine words in Japanese, English and Chinese that the plane was about to take off. Lu Mingfei also yawned. At this time, Xia Mi had been pestered by Constantine to play a Pokemon game on his mobile phone with him that could be connected to the local area network.
He looked at the window next to Eri, just above the girl's soft dark red hair. The sky there was filled with leaden clouds, and not far away there was a black Rolls-Royce sedan driving smoothly on the red protocol avenue. It was said that a Spanish ambassador landed at Narita Airport today, and the car was probably to receive the ambassador.
Lu Mingfei bought this flight at the last minute because first-class tickets were no longer available, but business class was not bad, with special drinks and a lunch that was completely different from the economy class.
The heavy snow last night swept across this city, which is known as the most magnificent city on earth. A foot of snow accumulated on the wings of the plane. Under the sky, which was rendered light gray by the clouds, a fire truck filled with antifreeze was coming from afar. The airport staff used water cannons to spray dark green liquid to wash away the snow on the wings. The small cabin was filled with noisy voices.
The air was filled with a rather groggy aroma, and soft warm wind was blowing from the side; the aircraft's air conditioning and fragrance systems had started working.
Eiry leaned on Lu Mingfei's shoulder and whispered something, but Lu Mingfei couldn't hear it clearly. He just felt like someone was talking to him through the thick fog on the sea.
He reached out and gently patted Eri's head, then took advantage of the fact that the plane hadn't taken off yet to sit up straight and turn on the reading light above the seat, then took out a completely sealed file bag from his lap.
The seal of that thing was made with beeswax dripped on and there was an S-shaped seal on it.
It was given to Lu Mingfei by the principal before leaving the Peninsula Hotel in Tokyo. It contained the academy's temporary plan to hunt down the dragon that was swimming in the Red Demon River.
Or it would be more accurate to call it the Deicide Report.
There wasn't much in the bag, just a stack of papers, which mainly contained speculations about "God" by the members of the Executive Department. At the same time, they adopted the suggestions made by Lu Mingfei and Ling to EVA, and planned to send beheaders to invade the White Feather Dog Shrine, where the heads of the Snake Eight Families were buried. They would dig out the bones of the shadow emperors whose bloodlines were comparable to those of pure-blooded dragons during their lifetime, and find a battlefield that was rarely visited and most suitable for killing gods, and put them there to attract the gods to enjoy the sacrifices that were originally prepared for them.
